A high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and a clear vertical stress. Hairline serifs and joins stay crisp and minimally bracketed, giving the outlines a sharp, engraved feel. Proportions lean toward tall capitals and a relatively small x-height, with compact, refined lowercase forms. Curves are smooth and controlled, while diagonals in letters like V, W, and Y read as steep and elegant; numerals follow the same contrast pattern with sturdy main strokes and delicate terminals.
Best suited to headlines, decks, pull quotes, and other display settings where the fine hairlines can be appreciated. It also fits premium branding and packaging, especially for cosmetics, fashion, or luxury goods, and for editorial layouts that call for a refined, high-contrast serif.
The overall tone is polished and elevated, projecting an editorial and fashion-forward character. Its dramatic contrast and precise detailing suggest sophistication and ceremony rather than casual warmth, with a distinctly classic, high-end voice.
Likely drawn to deliver a modern-classic, high-fashion serif voice built on strong contrast and precise hairline detailing. The design prioritizes elegance and impact in display typography while maintaining a composed, traditional structure.
In text, the hairline elements and tight joins create a sparkling texture at larger sizes, while small sizes may look more delicate due to the fine serifs and thin horizontals. The rhythm is orderly and measured, with clear stroke logic and consistent contrast across letters and figures.
